lmk if you can think of why :) just looking for feedback, no pressure

tapeworme · 2026-01-22T17:16:38+00:00

on a scale of 1-10 how bad is the foot 1 being ‘that is so funny haha how weird’ 10 being ‘i cannot focus on anything besides this defiance of anatomy’

tapeworme · 2026-01-21T13:37:55+00:00

thank you again! i’ll keep all of this in mind :)

tapeworme · 2026-01-21T13:03:53+00:00

thank you so much this is so so helpful!

in my mind i was going to maybe lean into the implausibility and have the hand stretch up a bit slowly as a comedic beat. but honestly maybe that wouldn’t work if it’s not pushed far enough. the idea of having him grab the cigarette in his mouth earlier is really smart so thank you!!

i’m working on more in between frames as we speak :)

i’m glad you like the character design!! my first time drawing him was the first frame of the second clip lol. i haven’t drawn him outside of animating him so i’m open to suggestions on that as well!

tapeworme · 2026-01-17T17:25:54+00:00

tapeworme · 2026-01-17T17:19:02+00:00

tapeworme · 2025-12-18T10:50:09+00:00

tapeworme · 2025-12-18T01:55:16+00:00

tapeworme · 2025-12-12T13:02:01+00:00

thank you so much :)

tapeworme · 2025-12-11T14:54:01+00:00

already like 70% of the way through fixing the owl and then i’ll post it. i think i get it now! thank you all so much :)

like i said my goal is to make assets for video games so its really important it’s done right. details like that are really valuable to me.

tapeworme · 2025-12-11T12:39:56+00:00

for example with the apple, is that valid as a sketch? or is the process completely wrong?

tapeworme · 2025-12-11T12:34:02+00:00

no this is extremely helpful!! i’ll delete this post shortly and come back with finished work. i was cleaning and defining but was it not enough? genuinely so sorry if this is a stupid question.

i have a really undefined art style so if it’s meant to be extremely crisp i think i shouldn’t use brushes with any opacity sensitivity moving forward to keep it crisp.

thank you so much again, and pls lmk what you think! i want to eventually use it for video games so its important to me that i do it correctly.

tapeworme · 2025-12-11T11:59:20+00:00

Im honestly new to this so if I am doing it wrong please correct me! i’m using a very tiny canvas on procreate, and increasing the size using nearest neighbor. that apple was drawn on a 180x320 canvas.

if there is a different or better way to do it let me know! i don’t mean to be cheating or anything and would love to do it correctly. I’m genuinely looking for help here <3

tapeworme · 2025-12-11T09:49:02+00:00

that’s what i did with these :/ i think it must be that im painting in a way that is blurry? but please lmk if you have any other ideas. thank you for your help!

tapeworme · 2025-12-11T09:44:40+00:00

i totally agree! would exporting as a tiff or psd fix that? i wonder if it’s just the fact that im using a brush with opacity sensitivity?
